Title: Tool chest drawer priority system
Inventor: CHAPMAN DAVID
IPC: E05B65/464
Filed: 2007-03-02
Abstract: The invention is a mechanical method of ensuring only one tool chest drawer can be opened at any time to reduce the possibility of the tool chest being tipped over. The design incorporates a series of plastic security blocks located at the front of the chest between which a lifter bar located on each drawer can extend as the drawer is opened. The drawer above the one being activated is blocked as a lifted block is in its way, and the drawer below cannot be opened as the block cannot lift as it fouls on the bottom of the open drawer. The arrangement also prevents, the simultaneous opening of two drawers. A spring ball catch at the bottom of each block can engage depressions in the top of the lifter bar to define drawer open positions.

Patent GB-543146-A (GB)
Title: Improvements in and relating to photographically produced stencils
IPC: G03F7/12
Filed: 1940-06-07
Abstract: 543,146. Photo-mechanically produced stencils. GESTETNER, Ltd., D., and WAELE, A. DE. June 7, 1940, No. 10016. [Class 98 (ii)] [Also in Group XVI] Stencils for use in duplicating are produced by subjecting a stencil sheet consisting of a highly porous support as of Yoshino paper, coated or impregnated with a protein emulsion of lightsensitive silver salt which has been desensitized and fogged, to the action of substantially monochromatic yellow light under an image of the matter to be reproduced, and processing the sheet, as by tanning development followed by washing out the soluble protein, to produce thereon an image of the like nature (i.e. positive or negative) constituted by ink-permeable areas. The yellow light de-fogs the emulsion at the areas on which it falls. In producing a positive stencil, a negative image of the matter to be reproduced is first made, e.g. in a camera on sensitized material having a transparent, translucent, or paper support, or by the reflex copying process on photographic paper using a yellow light or a filter cutting out violet and ultra-violet rays. The negative is dyed yellow as with picric acid which serves as filter, and exposed in contact with the stencil sheet, which is then developed with a tanning developer, such as pyrocatechin containing little or no sulphite, which hardens the protein according to its content of developed silver. Thereafter the unhardened parts of the protein are washed out with hot water, and the stencil is ready for use after draining, immersion in an agent containing a softening agent for the protein, blotting and drying. The emulsion on the stencil sheet must be predominantly sensitive to the blue and ultra-violet end of the spectrum ; it may be desensitized as with pinacryptol green ; and may be fogged by the action of light or of a chemical agent.

Title: Measuring circuits
IPC: G01R27/26
Filed: 1972-03-03
Abstract: 1416735 Measuring dielectric loss F C ROBINSON & PARTNERS Ltd 26 Feb 1973 [3 March 1972] 10121/72 Heading GIU [Also in Division G4] A circuit for measuring the area of a closed figure produced on a cathode ray tube by two phase-displaced A.C. signals, comprises means for integrating the product of one of the signals with the line differential of the other. As shown, the figure on screen 13 may represent a hysteresis loop formed by two A.C. signals x, y, and using a known method of measuring the dielectric loss of a dielectric material. To eliminate power-supply variations, the signals x, y are derived from differential amplifiers 14, 21 connected across the deflection plates of the tube. The signal x is differentiated in circuit 17 and multiplied by signal y in circuit 19. The product is rectified in an active full-wave rectifier 29 and integated in circuit 23. The integrator is reset during positive half-cycles of the signal x and integrator proceeds during the negative half-cycles, whereby the output of the integrator, as indicated by the peakvalue voltmeter 26, represents half the area of the figure on the screen 13. The re-setting is accomplished by means of a Schmitt tigger 28 which has an output only during the positive halfcycles of the signal x. If the figure is asymmetrical about the y (vertical) axis, the area is derived by adding together two successive outputs respectively integated over the negative and positive half-cycles of the signals x, obtained by inverting the operation of the trigger.
